Description

3 hours 49 minutes

A VERY POWERFUL LYING-DOWN QIGONG ROUTINE. Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming will teach you Meridian Qigong, his special daily exercise routine. Follow along and learn how a unique combination of simple yoga stretches and qigong movements can relieve energy stagnation and rejuvenate your entire body.

All exercises are performed lying down and many can be done sitting, if preferred. Meridian Qigong will quickly improve your general health, and help you to heal and prevent injuries. With regular practice you will notice that your entire body feels loose and comfortable, your reaction to stress will be calmer, and your circulation will be increased.

When your body becomes relaxed deeply and your energy is abundant in the central energy system of the body, your spirit is higher, and your health and immune response is improved.

Dr. Yang first explains the general concepts, shows each movement one by one, and then offers a continuous follow along routine you can use once you've learned the movements in detail. This program also offers previously unreleased bonus videos.
